Adding embedded build status icon to github

I'm trying to add status icon from Jenkins to GitHub README.md file but the icon doesn't display.

The Embeddable Build Status Icon plugin is installed on Jenkins.

I searched for solutions and found out that I need to change the "configure security" on Jenkins (I activated the Job->ViewStatus checkbox at the "Matrix-based security" for the Anonymous user) but it didn't work.

I tried to add someone else status icon to the README file and it works, so I think the problem is from Jenkins.

The row that I'm trying to add to README is:

![Build Status](http://3.213.40.221:8080/buildStatus/icon?job=1_Load_Build_Staging)

The link status icon works, but doesn't display on README

Anyone have any idea how to fix it?

Github caches README images, according to Aggressive image caching breaks image badges #24, so my guess is that either:

  1. Your build icon is not visible to Github's caching proxy, or
  2. Your jenkins status server is not serving correct HTTP caching headers
